“First experience with this tea was meh, in my travel mug. Vaguely fruity green with no spice. It could be that I need to deep clean my mug. I added a tiny bit of sugar, which didn’t help. This...” Read full tasting note
This VIT was created using a base of organic Chinese green teas (Gunpowder, Chun Mee, Yun Wu & Sencha) and Tulsi (green leaf, purple leaf and wild tulsi). Then I added lemon verbena, ginger root, red clover (leaf and blossom) and cayenne pepper – all herbs/spices touted for their cleansing properties.
The flavor is a fiery chili, ginger and lemon taste. It is NOT a tea for those timid about heat – this one packs a spicy punch! The sip starts out with an herbaceous note – slightly grassy from the green teas – and immediately, I taste a soft lemon flavor. Almost immediately thereafter, I taste ginger. And then POW! The cayenne hits the palate. This tea has got some SPICE! But even though there’s a good deal of spice to the tea, I still taste the notes of ginger and lemon and I even taste the light creamy notes from the green tea.
The fire to this blend is sure to give you a jump start to your day!
